Ah, 'Knights of the Cosmos' – a film where gallantry is not dead, just merely lost in time and space. Our valiant Sir Robin of Locksley, played with a deliciously anachronistic charm by Robin Tailor, crash-lands into the modern day with as much finesse as a knight jousting on a hoverboard. Anne Hathawhey's rebellious alien warrior serves as the perfect foil to our time-displaced hero, and together they generate more sparks than a sword striking a force field. George Lucat's direction is as ambitious as retrofitting a trebuchet with laser cannons, and the comedic touches provided by Caviar Bard-yam are as welcome as a bard in a battlefield, offering levity amidst the phaser fire. The film pirouettes on the thin blade edge between satire and sincerity, occasionally tripping over its own chainmail boots but always getting back up with a wink. 'Knights of the Cosmos' doesn't just juggle genres; it throws them into a mixmaster and hits puree, delivering a frothy spectacle that's as refreshing as a flagon of mead in a parched dystopia. It's not the crown jewel of cinematic history, but it's certainly the court jester – full of jests and just enough jesting to jestify a watch.
